I get too attached to
trust in a better us
In a flash we lost all that we had
I feel guilty every time we laugh
Cause I couldn't see
behind your mask
Could it be the timing or
the wrong place
Getting sick of hearing
you say always
Show a little effort
and that's all it takes
How could love feel safe
with a seed of doubt
All the nights I prayed you
would be around
No please don't go
Say that it was never your fault
Who was keeping count
Guess that I thought it
would even out
Now I know we'd never
last like cheap cologne
Last like cheap cologne
last like cheap cologne
Word to my preacher
I dig a little deeper
Cause sometimes what's real
Don't always show on the surface
Don't matter how I treat her
You see it in her demeanor
Like how we call it love
If we gon' end it all on purpose
Could it be the timing
or the wrong place
Getting sick of hearing
you say always
Show a little effort
and that's all it takes
How could love feel safe
with a seed of doubt
All the nights I prayed
you would be around
No please don't go
Say that it was never your fault
Who was keeping count
Guess that I thought
it would even out
Now I know we'd never
last like cheap cologne
Last like cheap cologne
last like cheap cologne
